My friend, Congratulations on completing your long walk. So many miles and personal milestones.Thank you for going to all the effort to record what you saw. The way you of frame landscape scenes in your viewfinder is clear and beautiful and reverent and respectful. I hope you have good health your whole life so you can continue walking and looking. Thank you for reminding those of us who have done similar solitary walks, of the kinship we have with clouds and wate, wind and rock and trees . All the best where ever you may go, Chris

Brings back so many good memories. I saw the kittens when their eyes were just opening. Didn't see the puppies...ironically Sarah the Trail Angel is involved with a dog rescue org. Amazing that you helped them and then she helped you. Karma. Loved Sitka coffee...was some of the best food and coffee I've ever had on trail. Republic is a special place. Looking forward to viewing the rest of your journey. I put a link to your videos in my blog. Keep up the excellent work!

Of course! They all mean a lot, and I only got around to editing the version of PCT videos I was happy releasing last year. I will get back to them and finish them after the PNT videos which take precedence as a much newer project. I've been quite busy with game development lately so videos have to take the back seat to something that can pay the bills. At some point I'll do some much quicker videos as well, is my goal.

Keegan, I really enjoy the history of our First Nation people that had learned to live in all of the different environments of what we call ours now. I have never heard anyone talk about those that came before us and it’s beautiful to learn about from you on this trail. All of those that were here first did not strip all of the resources to become fabulously wealthy. The Giant Sequoias, the Coast Redwoods, animals with beautiful fur, these resources were used, but 100% would go towards survival. Did anyone slaughter animals because ladies in Europe wanted to wear a cute hat or kill dozens for a fashionable coat and nothing else.
